Hi,

first of all, I do not want to use LAM but it seems that for ENTIRE compilation of 1.5-dev it is necessary?!
Otherwise it is always complaining about missing libPstream.so... (which exists for open-mpi...)

So:

1. is there a way to bypass the parallel **** since I do not need it that time? I read something of "dummy"...

2. How to compile LAM if it cries:

checking for type bool... no
checking for true/false... no
configure: WARNING: *** Your C++ compiler does not support the bool data type.
configure: WARNING: *** LAM requires a C++ compiler with support for the bool
configure: WARNING: *** data type.
configure: error: cannot continue

Thanks for your help!!

Hi Marco,


I am not sure if it helps, but I got similar errors about a missing libPstream.so, after I compiled OF-1.5-dev.

So I put ' unset WM_MPLIB ' in my '.bashrc' before it sources OpenFOAM.
And then when I source it, I don't get the error anymore.


I am not sure why I get this error, but this is a superficial solution.


Hope this help,
Philip

The old setting for WM_MPLIB must be coming from somewhere (ie, an older OpenFOAM version). If it is not part of your present environment, you might be inheriting it from the X11 session.

Hi,

I had previously compiled OpenFOAM-1.2 on my laptop, which must be from where it came.

Every time a new terminal is opened, it will be set to lam unless I unset it and resource the bash (or just unset in the bash before OpenFOAM).

There must be some way to unset it for good, but for now it does the job.

OK, I had just compiled 1.4.1-dev, so I know why... thanks again!
